idn2_lookup_ul(3)		     libidn2		       idn2_lookup_ul(3)

NAME
     idn2_lookup_ul - API function

SYNOPSIS
     #include <idn2.h>

     int idn2_lookup_ul(const char * src, char ** lookupname, int flags);

ARGUMENTS
     const char * src
		 input zero-terminated locale encoded string.

     char ** lookupname
		 newly allocated output variable with name to lookup in DNS.

     int flags	 optional idn2_flags to modify behaviour.

DESCRIPTION
     Perform  IDNA2008	lookup	string	conversion  on domain name  src , as de-
     scribed in section 5 of RFC 5891.	Note that the input is assumed to be en-
     coded in the locale's default coding system,  and	will  be  transcoded  to
     UTF-8 and NFC normalized by this function.

     Pass IDN2_ALABEL_ROUNDTRIP in  flags to convert any input A-labels to U-la-
     bels and perform additional testing. This is default since version 2.2.  To
     switch this behavior off, pass IDN2_NO_ALABEL_ROUNDTRIP

     Pass  IDN2_TRANSITIONAL to enable Unicode TR46 transitional processing, and
     IDN2_NONTRANSITIONAL to enable Unicode TR46 non-transitional processing.

     Multiple flags may be specified by binary or:ing them together, for example
     IDN2_ALABEL_ROUNDTRIP | IDN2_NONTRANSITIONAL.

     The IDN2_NFC_INPUT in  flags is always enabled in this function.

     After version 0.11:  lookupname may be NULL to test lookup of  src  without
     allocating memory.

RETURNS
     On  successful conversion IDN2_OK is returned, if conversion from locale to
     UTF-8 fails then IDN2_ICONV_FAIL is returned, if the output domain  or  any
     label would have been too long IDN2_TOO_BIG_DOMAIN or IDN2_TOO_BIG_LABEL is
     returned, or another error code is returned.

SINCE
     0.1
